Not a good sign, clicking. Usually that click comes from the compressor power circuit. The compressor is attempting to start but it does not. The clicking is from an overload protector that heats up from current draw. It clicks and cuts the power to the compressor, cools down, and the cycle starts again. Could be a start capacitor went bad, but it is probably the compressor.

The clicking sound is probably the compressor relay trying to start the compressor. When the lights dim, the compressor is trying to start and hence, pulling power from the rest of the unit.
If the compressor has a start capacitor, that could possibly be the problem. If not, the compressor itself should be replaced.

Sounds like the main control board is bad . Pt # WR55X10656 . This board is located behind the 8 " X 10 " , panel just above the compressor compartment . The compressor relay , is what you hear clicking , cutting the compressor , on/off . Even the dispensor board , is operated by the main control board .

Hi, If the lights are dimming, the compressor is drawing to many amps when trying to start. If the refrigerator is under 5 years old, I would check into the warranty. If it is over 5 years, You will be better off to get a new refrigerator.

Sorry to be vague in advance. I am a bit confused as to the compressor seems to be running bit. If the unit is on you should hear the compressor making a continuous noise. What you have described over a relay going click every fifteen secs could be the compressor overload / relay. If it is then the compressor is trying to start hence the dimming lights. Either way I would suggest one of two scenarios either the compressor is faulty or cannot start due to the relay or the unit is short of gas. Eiher way not a good scenario. I would suggest a tech to confirm or spend the money towards a new unit.
Hope this helps.
